Coulson walked in, curious to see who "Stark" referred to at this point. His face didn't budge, but it flashed pre-mature exasperation nonetheless. "I've had nightmares like this. Do any of you know me?"

"Agent Coulson," Tony replied. "Always a pleasure to see you alive and well."

"Agent? He with SHIELD then?"

"Aren't they always?" A beat. "Though he could have been with SWORD, I guess. I wonder how long it took to get those two agency names to spell sword and shield."

"So only one of you," Coulson said. That was a relief. "Phil Coulson. Director of SHIELD. We don't have any other fancy acronym organizations yet, but give us time."

"Director? And Fury let that happen?"

The most recent Tony shrugged. "A million that he's just underground. Again."

Well, this Tony hadn't had as much experience with Fury as the others. Other than getting yelled at.

A lot.

"He does that?"

"From time to time. He's officially dead right now," Coulson said. "And SHIELD's gone through some stuff. But he picked me to spearhead those changes. Or at least he would have, if he were alive."

Which he was. Just not officially. SPIES!

"Some stuff?" He hadn't gotten to Winter Soldier yet. But he knew ominous things when he heard them.

"If it was Skrulls, been there, done that. Got molested by their queen."

"...my life is going to only get weirder." Yes, little one. Yes.

"Yours and mine both, kid," Coulson said. "Now I have to find out what a Skrull is." Owned by Fox is what they were, so Coulson had nothing to worry about!

"Out of curiosity, which one of you is the current Stark here in town?"

Hey, he still dealt with them. Just the Ultimate version of them. And it was safe to say Winter Soldier was a combination of Secret Invasion and Secret Avengers.

"Right here."

That got complicated when the Chitauri became a distinct race in 616, of course, retroactively making the Ultimate version an amalgam of two races. So technically, Coulson was still Skrull-free.

That is some nerdy-ass conversation in the narrative.

"The one who seems a little more on the ball than the others. Congratulations," Coulson said. "I hope the town is treating you well."

It really, really did.

"I try," Tony replied with a grin. "It's almost peaceful compared to home."
